Physical & electrical characteristics
Product Overview
Type 245SF is an ultra-flexible semiconductive screened cable designed to comply with AS/NZS 1802 standards. Engineered specifically for trailing applications in cable chains on longwall shearer equipment, it operates effectively within the tight bending radii typical of such environments. Featuring three earth cores and three extensible pilot conductors, this cable supports advanced modern machine monitoring systems. Ideal for general purpose mining applications requiring maximum flexibility and durability.
Product Features
Ultra Flexible Design: Specially constructed for trailing applications on cable chains fitted to longwall shearer equipment, accommodating tight bends without compromising cable integrity.
Multiple Pilot Conductors: Equipped with three extensible pilot cores for enhanced control and modern machine monitoring requirements.
Robust Construction: Semiconductive elastomer screening combined with heavy-duty HD elastomer sheath and open weave reinforcement ensures protection against mechanical impacts, chemical exposure, water ingress, and UV/weathering.
Wide Application: Suitable for general mining feeder cable needs, especially in demanding trailing applications requiring maximum flexibility.
Fire Retardant: Meets the fire retardant standards mandated by AS/NZS 1802.
Application Areas
Ideal for trailing cable applications in longwall shearer cable chains, continuous miners, pump feeder cables, and monorail power supply systems requiring flexible, durable, and reliable mining cables.
Installation and Maintenance
Appropriate for installation in free air, ducts, and on mobile mining equipment. Installation should follow AS/NZS guidelines. Regular inspections are recommended to maintain sheath integrity and mechanical protection.
Customization Services
Open weave sheath reinforcement and custom cable lengths can be provided to tailor the cable to specific project requirements.
